My main use case for TeamViewer Business is supporting our internal employees and remote workers. A specific example of how I use TeamViewer Business to support our internal employees and remote workers is that we use TeamViewer to connect onto employees' laptops and upgrade software, repair problems, and troubleshoot.

Supports remote teams effectively and reduces travel through reliable low-bandwidth performance
What is our primary use case?
What is most valuable?
The best features TeamViewer Business offers include the ability to save all of your users into the interface so you can easily look up a person's name, and it will give you their computer without you having to maintain a spreadsheet of which users are associated with which device.
Saving users in the interface has helped our workflow and made things easier for our team because we use it every single day, and we would struggle to support our teams effectively without TeamViewer Business; it has made things much easier.
TeamViewer Business has positively impacted my organization as it has meant that we have been able to reduce our carbon footprint since we are not having to go out and visit people in person as often, allowing us to support them remotely much more frequently than we would be able to without it. Although I do not have any particular metrics, I would say before we had TeamViewer Business, we were probably visiting our stores at least a couple of times a year, and we have gotten that down to roughly one to one point two times a year, so it is almost half the amount of travel.
What needs improvement?
One thing that would really help with TeamViewer Business is if they were able to provide an easier way to deploy TeamViewer Business on all devices using group policy, as the current solution is quite clunky and very technical to set up; I have struggled and spent many days trying to get TeamViewer Business pushed out via group policy, and it has never worked as we would prefer, so we end up doing it manually, which is a drain on resources.
I think everything is pretty good about TeamViewer Business, but I would say the user interface in the newer versions is actually a bit harder to navigate than the older versions; it is probably that I have just gotten used to the old version.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using TeamViewer Business for around ten years.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
TeamViewer Business is stable for me.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
The scalability of TeamViewer Business is absolutely fine. Scalability has been useful for my organization because we have additional licenses for extra admins, and having the ability to have unlimited end-users is really valuable.
How are customer service and support?
Every time I have spoken to customer support, they have been really helpful. I would rate the customer support a ten.
How would you rate customer service and support?
Positive
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
Before TeamViewer Business, I used a combination of Remote Desktop and VNC, and certainly at our low bandwidth sites, we had many problems getting connected or staying connected; the connection would drop, while TeamViewer Business's very good compression and recovery algorithms resolved that problem for us and made it much more usable.
How was the initial setup?
My experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing has been very positive; we have had TeamViewer Business since TeamViewer twelve, and actually had a perpetual license, and when that went end-of-life, we were offered a big discount to go onto the annual model with the latest updates. My experience with the sales team has been very positive, as they have been very friendly, very helpful, and quick to provide pricing.
What was our ROI?
I do not have anything concrete to share regarding return on investment, but I would say we are doing much less travel than we would without TeamViewer Business; we would have been traveling and visiting all of our stores a couple of times, if not more, per year, and we are down to one to one and a half times a year.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
I did not evaluate other options before choosing TeamViewer Business as it was the obvious choice for us at the time.
What other advice do I have?
My advice to others looking into using TeamViewer Business is that it is a really good product; if you are using mainstream devices such as Windows or Mac, it is the one to choose, especially if you have devices spread out across the country or countries, as it will reduce your travel time, and if you have low bandwidth sites, it will help you compensate and keep you connected, even when speeds drop. I would rate this review a nine.
Has resolved remote client issues quickly and saves valuable time
What is our primary use case?
My main use case for TeamViewer Business is conditional; I use it when the client demonstrates a need for support via TeamViewer. TeamViewer Business is an excellent application for our business because our clients are elderly and older. TeamViewer is very easy to use, which is why I rely on it. I do not have any unique scenarios; I simply resolve problems for my clients.
What is most valuable?
The best feature in my experience with TeamViewer Business is TeamViewer Host. TeamViewer Host is an excellent category because when I use a new system, I install it for my client and I put my own password and my own ID. This is very useful for us, and if clients are elderly and do not understand any application, I manage without any confirmation via TeamViewer Host.
Using TeamViewer Business saves my time because my users are not on our premises; they are in different locations, which is much better for managing my time. Saving time is not an expense as well. My time is very important and useful. TeamViewer Host and TeamViewer are good for managing time-saving.
Using TeamViewer for my personal clients has made things much better for me and my clients because my clients are happy to resolve a problem within seconds via TeamViewer. That is important because my clients need problems resolved, and time is very important.
What needs improvement?
I think TeamViewer has many better options, and I suggest TeamViewer should also offer voice communication with my clients because writing is acceptable, but voice communication is much better.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using TeamViewer Business for approximately two to three years.
How are customer service and support?
My experience with customer support for TeamViewer Business is good; I have needed help from their support team before. Currently, I use it because I am an expert in TeamViewer and I use my own knowledge.
How would you rate customer service and support?
Positive
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
How was the initial setup?
My experience with the pricing, setup cost, and licensing for TeamViewer Business is good; it is a very affordable price.
What was our ROI?
I have not measured any specific outcomes such as time saved or increased client satisfaction since I started using TeamViewer Business; I do not have many clients, only approximately 10 to 20 clients. I think it is much better to save time and increase client satisfaction.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
I did not evaluate other options before choosing TeamViewer Business because I used AnyDesk, but my clients did not understand the features of AnyDesk; that is why I chose TeamViewer Business.
What other advice do I have?
My advice for others looking into using TeamViewer Business is to ask colleagues, business partners, and clients to use TeamViewer Business because it is very useful, very great, very good, and communicates very fast with remote communication. I already recommend this to everyone.
I have no additional thoughts about TeamViewer Business. I give this review a rating of 10.
Has improved troubleshooting efficiency and reduced support costs through remote access
What is our primary use case?
My main use case for TeamViewer Business is providing support to remote clients and users whenever they need troubleshooting for their PCs when they experience problems.
When someone's PC is not working well, I connect with the client remotely, access their PC, and troubleshoot to identify where the problem is.
I primarily use TeamViewer Business for support purposes. I have not extensively explored other functionalities for PCs and phones because that falls outside my job description.
What is most valuable?
The best features TeamViewer Business offers include the ability to easily navigate to someone else's mobile phone if they have an issue and remotely access it, along with the ease of use, which is one of the strongest aspects of the platform.
Both the interface and the connection speed specifically make TeamViewer Business easier to use compared to other remote connection tools.
TeamViewer Business has positively impacted my organization by boosting efficiency since you do not need to be physically available to the client to troubleshoot or help them. This has improved business operations because efficiency leads to smooth business flow and increased productivity.
What needs improvement?
I believe TeamViewer Business could be improved in several areas.
TeamViewer could work on performance latency in slower internet connections by optimizing screen refresh rates during remote sessions, especially when transferring large files or using graphics-heavy applications.
Additionally, TeamViewer should work on licensing and pricing clarity to make license tiers and pricing easier to understand for management when presenting to a board why they need TeamViewer Business.
Improving security and compliance would be valuable improvements to the platform.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using TeamViewer Business cumulatively for approximately one and a half years.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
TeamViewer Business is stable on some scale, though it has limitations regarding granular access control for different users in an organization.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
In terms of scalability, a single user can connect to multiple devices, but only one session at a time. On a scale of 1 to 10 regarding scalability, I would give it a 6.
How are customer service and support?
TeamViewer Business customer support is excellent. I would rate the customer support a 9 on a scale of 1 to 10.
How would you rate customer service and support?
Positive
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
Previously, I have used AnyDesk and Teams, which were my solutions at my previous workplace.
How was the initial setup?
TeamViewer Business was already deployed when I came to the company, so I cannot provide much detail on the initial setup.
What about the implementation team?
I evaluated other options before choosing TeamViewer Business, including Teams, AnyDesk, and RDP. I prefer TeamViewer Business over these alternatives.
What was our ROI?
Definitely, we have seen a return on investment with time saved and fewer employees needed because you do not need a lot of office space since some employees are working remotely. In case they have troubleshooting issues, you just need to connect an instance and help them troubleshoot.
What other advice do I have?
I would tell others looking into using TeamViewer Business to go for it. My overall review rating for TeamViewer Business is 8.
Has enabled us to quickly resolve client issues and reduce downtime through secure remote maintenance
What is our primary use case?
My main use case for TeamViewer Business is for accessing computers of clients to perform maintenance and debug issues.
For example, I access a client's computer, identify a software problem, access the software, and fix the bug.
What is most valuable?
In my opinion, the best feature TeamViewer Business offers is the ability to access client computers with very high speed.
The remote access is very fast, and I do not experience any problems with the speed of access.
TeamViewer Business has positively impacted my organization by giving us the ability to provide clients with a good experience and to fix bugs quickly while accessing their computers.
Since using TeamViewer Business, I have noticed less downtime because clients do not need to wait extended periods for bug fixes. TeamViewer Business allows us to resolve issues very quickly.
I really appreciate the security aspect of TeamViewer Business.
What needs improvement?
TeamViewer Business is performing very well at the moment and I do not see additional things to improve.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using TeamViewer Business for two years.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
In my experience, TeamViewer Business is stable, and I do not encounter problems with the program going down or similar issues.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
The scalability of TeamViewer Business is easy to manage, as the people responsible for TeamViewer can contact TeamViewer and add more users very easily.
How are customer service and support?
I have never used customer support for TeamViewer Business, so I cannot provide feedback on this aspect.
How would you rate customer service and support?
Negative
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
I used another solution called AnyDesk, but many people recommended TeamViewer, and I prefer TeamViewer Business at the moment.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
I did not evaluate other options before choosing TeamViewer Business. I prefer TeamViewer Business and will continue to use it.
What other advice do I have?
I advise others looking into using TeamViewer Business to use it because it performs very well. I rate this product 10 out of 10.
Offers ease and straightforwardness in managing integrations
What is our primary use case?
I use the solution in my company for the remote access it offers to computers. The tool is used to connect to our clients' desktops and offer remote support.
What is most valuable?
The most valuable feature of the solution is that it is very fast. The file transfer from remote machines to my machine or from my machine to the remote machine works well. One of the other features is the tool's ability to prevent the remote endpoint from being used by the user while I am connected to their machine. There is a feature that basically turns off the endpoint of the end users while TeamViewer is open.
What needs improvement?
The tool is constantly improving the software, and it does what it needs to in my environment.
The product's expensive nature is an area of concern where improvements are required.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using TeamViewer for seven years. Specifically, I use TeamViewer remote support.
How are customer service and support?
I have never contacted the technical support for the solution.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
I have worked with AnyDesk. Compared to TeamViewer, AnyDesk is slower and is not as user-friendly. The file transfer support is not great in AnyDesk. With TeamViewer, you can actually use drag-and-drop features, which are not present in AnyDesk. TeamViewer is more expensive than AnyDesk. AnyDesk is definitely more affordable than TeamViewer.
How was the initial setup?
The product's deployment phase is straightforward. The tool's deployment is one of the easiest. It is basically just a matter of sending a link to a client to download because there are options, and depending on what link you give them, they can either install it or use the portable version. It is very easy to get the tool up and running on the remote machine.
What was our ROI?
I have definitely seen some time-saving benefits from using the tool. It is so easy to use and very fast, making it my go-to remote application.
For argument's sake, before having TeamViewer, I literally used to spend four days of the week on-site with clients. Now, I only go on-site twice or thrice a month.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
The tool's price is a problem because TeamViewer wants users to sign up, and I feel most of the products want their users to do the same. TeamViewer is very pricey. You have to sign up for a yearly subscription.
What other advice do I have?
I am not too sure about the security features, but I do know they use an encryption layer. I have never had any security issues with TeamViewer.
The tool's integration is fairly straightforward. Initially, I used to use TeamViewer as a standalone product, but now I use it after integrating with NinjaOne. In terms of the integration, the tool is pretty straightforward and easy.
I have not dealt with AI in the tool.
I recommend the tools to others. I haven't moved from TeamViewer even though it is more expensive than the other products because it is the easiest one to use.
I have tried AnyDesk and some other solutions, but I feel that compared to TeamViewer, they were all slow.
I rate the tool a ten out of ten.
A good product for helping others, especially with user problems, installation issues, or other tasks
What is most valuable?
TeamViewer is very easy to use, and I use it in a professional manner to assist colleagues at the university remotely. It's a good product for helping others, especially with user problems, installation issues, or other tasks.
It's not my primary role, but sometimes, when someone has user issues with their computer, I assist them remotely. Even though I don't work at the service desk, I help with security and other problems using the tool.
I find the mouse control and the ability to click for them very effective. I can move the mouse and click on buttons as if sitting at their computer. These are the basic features I use most often in the solution. There are tricker features that I don't use much because I don't need them frequently. Overall, it's a great tool for helping others with their computer issues without traveling to their location or another building.
It saves time because I can guide someone by saying, "Go to the third option in the menu on the right," and then click on it. I can see their screen and guide them through the steps, watching the mouse move and seeing everything that happens on their computer.
What needs improvement?
We access the solution through a VPN, which improves our security. However, earlier this year, around the beginning of March, a CVE in the TeamViewer client allowed remote connections to other network systems, which was concerning. You could have unintentionally gained admin rights if you didn't update TeamViewer promptly. It's crucial to always keep it updated to prevent such issues. The tool should consider implementing two-factor authentication to improve such security holes. It should also integrate good security updates, which should be implemented automatically.
I'm curious if TeamViewer can track the time I spend using it. I wonder if it records how long sessions last.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been working with the product for seven years.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
I rate the product's stability an eight out of ten.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
The solution is scalable. If someone calls the help desk and has never used TeamViewer, they can receive a link to download it. They can install and start using it to resolve their issues within minutes. I rate its scalability an eight out of ten. My company has more than 200 users.
How are customer service and support?
I support others. I haven't felt the need to call support myself.
How was the initial setup?
The tool's deployment is easy.
What was our ROI?
The solution lets me help my colleagues easily as if I were sitting in their neighborhood.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
The solution's pricing is reasonable.
What other advice do I have?
The solution is a good product and makes work easy. I would recommend it to others. I rate the overall solution an eight out of ten.
Easy to use and offers a good UI to users
What is our primary use case?
I use the solution in my company more for collaboration amongst different teams and for coordinating and having virtual calls and meetings.
What is most valuable?
The solution's most valuable feature is that the tool functions like a normal chat application. It is easy to use and has a pretty good UI.
What needs improvement?
Considering the earlier versions of the product, I think TeamViewer used to slow down the systems. Lately, I don't know if the problem still exists.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using TeamViewer for more than a year.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
Stability-wise, I rate the solution a nine out of ten.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
I believe that more than 700 to 800 users in my company use the product.
The product is regularly used in my company.
How was the initial setup?
The product's initial setup phase is very straightforward and simple.
The product is out of the box, so it is pre-installed on our company's systems.
What other advice do I have?
In terms of the product's security features, the solution allows you to have team meetings, and you can also use it for remote access and screen-sharing capabilities. TeamViewer is typically like any other team collaboration software.
I recommend the product to others since it is a good product for collaboration purposes.
There are no connectivity challenges associated with the product.
In terms of benefits, I would say that it is a good tool for collaboration, productivity, and virtual work as it saves a lot of commute time for the employees.
I rate the tool a nine out of ten.
